Waku Ghin offers the brilliance of Chef Tetsuya Wakuda over a widened repertoire that spans contemporary bar experiences, private dining and its signature Chef’s Table. Opened in 2010 to rave reviews, Waku Ghin showcases the brilliance of Chef Tetsuya Wakuda in his only establishment outside of his world-famous Sydney restaurant. From the restaurant name, which reflects the use of silver in the ki

tchen, to the small wall niches that hold his works of art, the chef’s personal imprint is found throughout Waku Ghin. The award-winning restaurant’s dining concept is based upon a multi-faceted use of space, where diners can move from room to room, luxuriating over a bespoke experience of refined cuisine and exemplary service. Each private enclosure is helmed by a chef, bringing forward the season’s best to the Chef’s Table. Diners then move on to the main dining room or drawing room to relax over desserts, coffee and digestifs, while soaking in the sensational floor-to-ceiling view of the Singapore skyline. Waku Ghin’s European/Japanese menu boasts new creations sourced from the freshest ingredients from the region and beyond. Signature items include Marinated Botan Shrimp with Sea Urchin and Caviar, and Australian Wagyu with Wasabi and Citrus Soy. A 10-course degustation menu is available for dinner in this gastronomic gem of a restaurant with only 25 seats, promising a truly private and exclusive experience. In May 2012, Waku Ghin made its debut on the coveted S. Pellegrino World’s 50 Best Restaurants list, landing in 39th place. This was hailed as a “rare feat” by the organizers of the prestigious guide, a nod towards its debut on the list in just under two years.

Available year-round but best in the summer when they are at their chubbiest. Anago — saltwater eels — call for great skill to ensure that their sweet flesh is cooked just so, or it falls apart. Anago’s inherent flavour is best when treated with restraint. This summer, Chef Tetsuya Wakuda poaches it in its own broth before grilling on a bamboo leaf.

A tile of koya tofu reconstituted in lobster stock, trapping the intense bisque-esq flavour that mirrors the morsels of poached Canadian lobster perched upon it. A late addition of rice vinegar adds zip and tightness to the dish’s sweet richness.

Sweet, plump and briny with the taste of the ocean, hamaguri is best served with restraint. At Waku Ghin, a dab of soy butter and pickled wasabi anoint the clams with a nuanced complexity. Simple, elegant and a celebration of the hamaguri’s natural glory.

Gyoja-ninniku or wild Japanese garlic takes five years to grow. When they are good and ripe in the late spring, their plump leaves and red-tinged stems are rich with deep allium flavour. Chef Tetsuya Wakuda gives them a quick toss with spaghettini and top-quality olive oil, before anointing it all with a crown of shaved bottarga. A classic preparation that straddles his Japanese and Australian sensibilities.

Experience and instinct are not defined by what chefs add to a dish, but in what they know to leave untouched. At Waku Ghin, a vibrant slab of bonito receives a kiss of fire, a drizzle of olive oil and the sweetness of Japanese summer onions. Just three simple elements that transform it into a celebration of summer.
